ZIP Code 04915

With a median household income of $66,362 and per-capita income of $43,770, ZIP code 04915, centered on Palermo, sits in middle-income territory rather than among Maine's wealthier enclaves. Homes here carry a median value of $308,700, and the county-level effective property tax rate of 1.04% means owners pay roughly $3,210 annually on a house at that price. Sales tax runs 5.50% on purchases. Taken together, the tax load leans on property owners more than shoppers, and the income figures place this area below the state's more affluent coastal communities while remaining above its poorest.
